Laubry-Pezzi syndrome is a congenital heart disease that consist in a prolapse of aortic valve cusping into a subjacent ventricular septal defect due to Venturi effect. It results in progressive aortic valve insufficiency. The perimembranous type is the most common due to the proximity of the aortic annulus to such defects. The aim of this report is to highlight the specificity of the diagnosis and the surgical management of this syndrome in adult patients.

AbstractThis is the first attempt to use a temporary occluder to close a giant perimembranous ventricular septal defect (32 mm), which obtains clinical evidence of good haemodynamics in patients with severe pulmonary hypertension. This may provide an alternative assessment to guide cardiac surgeons in determining a definitive treatment.

Abstract Device occlusion of perimembranous ventricular septal defect is gaining popularity with the emergence of newer, softer occluders and improved technical know-how. We report a 26-year-old lady with a moderate size perimembranous ventricular septal defect who had a new onset of bundle branch block shortly after device closure. The patient subsequently developed a complete atrio-ventricular heart block.
